You don’t need to do anything. Up to your manager to make sure they are being done.

I've normally just doing the ones on the days I'm actually in for. And if they do ask me to put the other days in, I'll be like, "right okay, which bag do you want me to drop today?" :cuppa

The customer is paying a lot off money on printing these leaflets and paying royalmail for delivery so they are delivered on the time and have staff set up for the rush they bring in and royalmail are not delivering them I hope these companies take them to court for selling a service that they are not providing

Carry them over into the next week? That's what we do. Only deliver them where you're already going. It's a never ending delay
of D2D but at least they're going out.

Just leave them or prep them in and leave some loops, see what your manager wants to prioritise... Can't really expect to get them delivered in the height of pressure season.

Yes, as others have said just deliver what you can work your hours and go home. Up to the manager to chase up those who don't deliver them.

Give them to your Picket line supervisor to burn in your brazier/firepit.
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.
